Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight Reviews
Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight delivers a solid gameplay experience for fans of rhythm games but besides that only a small section filled with Fanservice. The missing story and the limited track selection will even make it hard for Persona fans to invest more time than they have to into this game.

The release of Persona 5 Dancing in Starlight and Persona 3 Dancing in Moonlight is a niche within a niche.
Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight lacks the charm and effort the Persona games usually have. It's the weakest Persona game to date.
Overall, Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight is an entertaining game. Anyone looking for a good, fun rhythm experience should check it out. It does have its flaws, but is fun nonetheless. It is great to see the Phantom Thieves together again, tearing things down like they always do.
Overall, Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight is a solid rhythm title for fans of the series. While the music could’ve used a bit more variety, the overall quality of the track list is still superb.
While its release rounds out the trio of games that have more focus on the moving and grooving than on good old turn-based combat, all the choreography in the world can’t make the game a satisfying product.
The music in the Persona series has always been one of the highlights of the franchise so I’m so glad it’s been given it’s time to shine via the now 3 released Persona Dancing titles. The dancing gameplay is easy to pick up and is extremely fun and addicting. When not playing it I wanted to get back to it to try and better my scores for the tracks I hadn’t earned a ‘Brilliant’ rating on yet.
